On a flight that long, they take two or three crew teams - not that they wouldn't have had to pull an extra shift each -- nm - Roger More Jan 19, 08:41 3
- I'm relatively sure AA only sends one crew, but they get a 3 or 4 hours rest during the flight. - ty97 Jan 19, 08:43 2
  - Seriously? Wow, that's really rough. I hope they get a decent break before the return flight -- nm - Roger More Jan 19, 08:45 1
    - The flight arrives (scheduled) 9:45pm and the flight back leaves at 00:55 so the crew gets at least 27 hours - ty97 Jan 19, 08:47
yep, they were great. I'm sending feedback to American to commend them. - ty97 Jan 19, 08:40 2
- (and, also, thank god you were in business class. that would have been unbearable in coach.) - Andie Jan 19, 08:41 1
  - I know. Work only pays coach. The advantage of loyalty to one airline is that you can earn upgrades. - ty97 Jan 19, 08:42
